Objective: to carry out an exhaustive systematic review, making use of scientific information with databases concerning the phytochemical composition, bromatological composition, pharmacological activity and toxicological activity of the species Platycladus orientalis (Tuya orientalis or Tree of life). Materials and methods: information from studies on phytochemistry, bromatology, pharmacology and toxicology of Platycladus orientalis was collected and analyzed using primary sources from databases such as Google Scholar, Scopus, PubMed, Virtual Health Library, Scielo and Elsevier. Results: at the phytochemical level, they showed terpenoids, unsaturated fatty acids, sterols, amino acids and flavonoids. At the bromatological level, they showed mineral components such as calcium, potassium, iron, sodium, manganese and zinc; total ash, average humidity, density and temperature were measured. At the pharmacological level, they showed antidepressant, Alzheimer's disease, antiparkinsonian, anti-inflammatory, antiallergic, antiviral and antibacterial activity. At toxicological level they showed to have good cytotoxic activity on cancer cells. Conclusions: platycladus orientalis not only possesses significant pharmacological potential, but can also be considered a valuable source of nutrients and poses no significant toxicological risks, which supports its possible future use in the pharmaceutical and food industry, as well as in diverse therapeutic applications.
